| He hath shattered the loom of the weaver | A |
| And left but a leaf that flits | G |
| He hath seized heaven's gold and a fever | A |
| Of mist and of frost is its | G |
| - | |
| He hath tippled the buxom beauty | H |
| And gotten her hug and her kiss | G |
| The wide world's royal booty | H |
| To pile at her feet for this | G |
